Description: Economic crisis impact on key U.S. wealth variables Interpreting the Chart Various measures of U.S. Household wealth have declined significantly since the start of the crisis in 2006-2007. This data is from the Federal Reserve Flow of Funds Report.[1] The corporate equities represent a subset of financial assets, while both financial assets and real estate assets are components of net worth (i.e., assets minus liabilities). See page 1 of the Fed report for any additional numbers. Peak amounts are indicated along with the most recent data. U.S. household and non-profit organization net worth has declined approximately $12.2 trillion dollars from its peak, with declines in equities and household wealth accounting for $8 trillion of this amount. I do not know if or how the variables are adjusted for inflation. They do not reflect dollar appreciation or depreciation relative to foreign currencies.
